I;d like to see her in Game of Thrones


I think she'd make a good Lyanna Stark (if they choose to include Lyanna). Thoughts?

Great idea -- I think that Claire is a wonderful young actress, and she has the appropriate beauty, subtle elegance, striking coloring (light eyes and dark hair), and "wild" spirit to play a convincing Lyanna. It is funny to think that we would have two Anne Boleyns in Game of Thrones! Natalie is just smashing as Margaery. I think Claire would be excellent as Lyanna Stark, and it has always been difficult to think of an actress that (to me) had the energy and personality of the wolf-girl, the free-spirited Lyanna. One could well believe that Lyanna, as played by Claire, would be just tempestuous enough -- and courageous enough -- to run away with the man she truly loved, despite her family's wishes and the expectations of the kingdom.
